Blue Nile

From a secret spot in Africa it flows, carrying upon its flowing waters all the fabled mysteries of that shadowy Dark Continent… 

Exemplifying that same mystery is this wonderfully bold necklace!  Large turquoise nuggets averaging 40 mm are joined with spiraling puffy Hill Tribe silver triangles and HUMONGOUS puffy Hill Tribe daisies, which serve to highlight the focal piece: an utterly magnificent 115 mm antique Ethiopian silver Coptic cross.  Fancy Bali rectangles and a heavy Israeli sterling silver “J”-clasp end this piece, which measures a wonderful 21 inches end to end!

Kiva

In the kiva, energies connect one to the earth, and the earthbound to the heavens.

You will find that connection here as well, in this fabulous turquoise and coral necklace! 

Triple strands of nuggets, chips, barrels and high-polished faceted ovals of genuine Chinese, Tibetan and Arizona turquoise hang from twin coral branch slices, in turn flanked by Hill Tribe 99% pure silver beads.  A coral branch hangs as focal; the necklace reduces to a single strand behind the neck.
